A group of European experts was commissioned to establish guidelines on the therapeutic
use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) from evidence published up until …

Plasticity is an intrinsic property of the human brain and represents evolution's invention to
enable the nervous system to escape the restrictions of its own genome and thus adapt to …

Unilateral spatial neglect is a common neurological syndrome following predominantly right
hemisphere injuries and is characterized by both spatial and non-spatial deficits. Core …

A patient with the neglect syndrome fails to report, or to respond or orient to, novel or
meaningful stimuli presented to the side opposite a brain lesion.'The definition does not …

The syndrome of spatial neglect is typically associated with focal injury to the
temporoparietal or ventral frontal cortex. This syndrome shows spontaneous partial …

Recent experimental work in animals has emphasized the importance of homeostatic
plasticity as a means of stabilizing the properties of neuronal circuits. Here, we report a …

Functional imaging studies with nonfluent aphasia patients have observed “over-activation”
in right (R) language homologues. This may represent a maladaptive strategy; suppression …

This book is a succinct introduction to the orienting of attention. Richard Wright and
Lawrence Ward describe the covert orienting literature clearly and concisely, illustrating it …

Cerebral plasticity, which is the dynamic potential of the brain to reorganize itself during
ontogeny, learning, or following damage, has been widely studied in the last decade, in …

Introduction Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is a disorder of contralesional space
awareness which often follows unilateral brain lesion. Since USN impairs awareness of …
